Description
This is a brilliant new stand alone novel - dark, gritty, and compelling - marking a new departure for the author.When the body of a man is discovered in a rough grave deep in the woods, the police find that it is of one of their young undercover officers - who died nearly thirty years ago. As their inquiries from slender clues progress, it becomes clear that what they are also uncovering is a sordid tale of corruption and murder within their own ranks. For the force, there's nothing worse than bent coppers, but as their enquiries proceed they underestimate the strength of the cover up. And as the case unravels, it transpires that the murder of young P C Jimmy Coventry wasn't the only police officer murdered in the line of duty - not then, not now.
